Same as a normal bike just go the opposite direction so that it tightens when you pull. If you did it normal it unravels. each wrap overlaps the previous row 45-50%. Silca makes the best bar tape as of today IMHO. Expensive but worth it.

Stash a tube in the frame in a zip lock bag and a dollar bill. If the gash is that bad you'll have to get the tire half off; remove the tubeless value; insert the tube and place the dollar bill inbetween the tube and the tire; then reseat the tire and inflate. Anything that takes me more that 40...

If your avatar is accurate you really could use the new longer chain stay to get your feet higher; you can buy them and the new ones will work even on the silvios. I have the long stay on an older Silvio 2.0 and it works great and for taller people it will get you feet up higher so you can slide...

You can do that; it may not shift smoothly due to miss-matched ramps but it WILL shift.

The part I don't get is; do people really think the rest of us don't remember the lies and games of the past? Please everyone that's still raising kids or influencing grandkids warn them off hyperbole and the dangers of having to later save face when you look stupid and over extend.

Dam it Betsy now I had to create a youtube account just to comment after seeing that back and forth. What will I do now with an account I'll never use again.

Ah that would be because I didn't post the unfinished bike. You are correct it changed between the KS run and the stock run. (For others following along, If you had to cut your riser and fork steam then you have post run) In this case the Red bike has the post run, and the yellow has the KS run...

Still had to cut the fork so the mallet was needed to get the riser installed

Your part is correct (the two angled edges are opposite each other). You may have it installed upside down. This setup was used on a lot of previous models. Not a builds have room for the wires if you have long legs. You can remove the bolt but it is installed (in my experience) with red lock...

Always interesting to work through a bike for the first time; it took a few hours but the curve wasn't too bad and the results came out pretty good. Really love the tires they are like having suspension.

From the beginning I felt like the silver frames looked better that the black ones, (unless all black) but I couldn't shake the feeling that it was too much silver. So finally one of the bikes is back from the Painter and I can assemble it. (cost to have the 5 parts powder coat painted, $100)

Now worries there; I was just sharing what we ran into with the Cruzbike relay team 2 years ago; I can say for sure we got caught out short with how fast they could get down the road.

Yep Going fast with a relay.... fairly solid getting the riders. Meanwhile the real challenge is keeping the size of the crew you need moving FASTER down course than the relay team, that is a problem. If the riders are doing 25-30mph you have to run at 85mph down course or you can't rest the...

Correct I will be replacing Black parts with Black Parts.

So yes after two years there was some progress. Waiting on something special so it might be 2 weeks before we anything else interesting to show; but fat-yellow is coming along nicely.

Ok It's probably going to be a few days before I can get the pictures (doing this to 4 bikes) but here's the lead. I have completed Parts swaps that take just shy of 1 pound off the nose of our V20's and 1.25 off the entire bike. Here's the part changes. 1. Replace Power Tap P1 pedals with...
